About Us
95% of problems are solved by adapting existing technologies to your problem.
Dr. Tony McCaffrey, co-founder, brings a unique skillset and perspective to problem solving based on his expertise in Computer Science and Cognitive Psychology.
​
He has been a life long problem solver. Combining his knowledge of the power and limitations of human creativity and problem solving with his understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of computer-based problem solving, Tony created BrainSwarming to maximize the value of each.

What is Analogous Search?
The BrainSwarming application includes a powerful 'Analogous Search' engine to find 'aha' solutions to problems.
Google only shows what 'has been done in the past', not how to solve today's new problems.
